Abortion story #818
I was coerced by my (then) boyfriend who I had been living with as a wife for almost four years. We were ‘in love’ (or at least I was and thought he was too). When I became pregnant, our relationship changed. I went from expecting support, marriage, and a life together to receiving a ‘cold response’ and pressure to get an abortion—which I strongly resisted. Unfortunately, the pressure increased to the point he threatened to end the relationship, leave me, and make me homeless. I still resisted, but he was controlling and had managed to isolate me into a position where I had no family or friends and trusted him alone. I believed him when he feigned an emotional breakdown because of what I ‘was doing to him.’ I was torn inside but believed his lies as I was young and naive. As he manipulated me further, he introduced marriage to my delight as a ‘guarantee’ he loved me. What he failed to say was that it was a deception to bring in the abortion as I was now so happy he wanted to marry me.
